not looking for the spoils after
the victory had been won, but
men who thorough ly realized
that at present there was noth
ing in sight for them. Some of
them must have realized that
possibly before a victory could
be reaped they would have pass
ed into the great beyond. But
they were there, honest up
right. true citizens of South
Carlina, looking to what they
considered for the'best interests
of their state, and of their chil
dren and children's children, and
determined to put into motion an
honest election system under
which in the future they could
not be robbed, as' they them

Tuesday night, said they had

was sixw L .nee of the Demo
cratic party, the resolutions
saying so in so many wor-ds.
The nomination is not made by
the state executive committee,
nor is it made by a convention
but it is made by the voters of
the state, and he who receives
a majority of the votes is the
nominee of the party. That
convention said emphatically
and positively that 1 had receiv
ed a majority of those votes, and
was therefore the nominee of
the nominee of the Democratic
party for governor. They
further said that the victory
had been wrenched from them
by fraud, coercion, intimidation
theft and perjury. I would
much prefer to be in my position
today than to be in Mr. Man.

would far rather have never

the forty-five .counties of my
state, pass such resolutions as

NOT FAIR.
-After seeing the representa
tives in this convention, and
having had personal interviews
with men from every nook and
corner of South Carolina during
the present week, I am absolute
ly and confidently satistied that
South Carolina is facing the
greatest political crisis of her
istory, and that the-honest yoe
manry of this state, even some
of those who are opposed to me
politically, have awakened to a
realization of the fact that their
elections are no longer fair and
honorable, nor is the victory to
the man or men who engaged in
honest methods, but to those
who can steal purchase, intimi
date or coerce the largest num
ber of their fellow-citizens.
Realizing this, they have made
up their minds, with full deter
mination, to go into the fight
with renewed vigor, and I now
predict that the year 1918 will
see the greatest political battle
that has yet been fought in
South Carolina, and the Reform
faction will be the victors, be
caue the right will prevail, -and
truth cr-ushed to earth shall rise
again."
STANDS READY.
"What of your own political
future?" Mr. Blease was asked.
"'When I was cheated and de
frauded of my election for the
United State 4 senate," he said,
which was brought about by
pimps and hirelings, I decided
to retire from politics, so far as
self interest was concerned, and
to work only in the future for
those who had given me my
life's ambition, the governor
ship. When the call was made
for me to enter the race for
governor this year, reluctantly
1 went in. I said from the
stump all over the state that I
was gomng to win the victory,
but that it was going to be
stolen from me. I did win the
victory, and it was stolen from
me. Personally .I have no
further political ambition, but I
stand ready to serve my friends
whenever tbey call. -If it be to
canvass the state as an individ
ual citizen, 'and make speeches
fo my party, I shall do it. If it
be that I am compelled to be ~a
candidate, for some office in or

my friends request it, I shall dc
it. In other words. the future
must take care of itself. I can
not say what I will do or what
1 wont do, but at present I am~
not a candidate for any office,
nor, as I stated in my speech
before the convention, do I ex
pet to be."
Ex- Governor Blease in a
speech before a convention held
in Columbia last week said he
was not a candidate for any
office, which should relieve the
distressed minds of those who
have been claiming he would
run in the general election. We
are glad Mr. Blease had the
manhood to make this statement
and not be influenced into enter
ing the general election, as it
would have been a bad precedent
in future primaries. It matters
not how he or his supporters
feel, they should accept the de
cision of the ones that declared
him defeated, and hope for
things to right themselves in
time to come.
This is Certain
The Proof That Manning Readers Cannot
Deny.
What could furnish stronger evi
dence of the efficiency of any remedy
than the test of time? Thousands of
people testify that Doan's Kidney Pilis
have brought lasting results.
Home endor sement should prove un
doubtedly the merit of this remedy.
Years ago your friends and neighbors
testified to the relief they have derived
from the use of D.>an's Kidney Pills.
They now confirm their testimonials.
They say time has completed the test.
"Mrs. J. Wells. Manning, says: "I
suffered from dull, nagging backaches,
pains across my kidneys, headaches
and dizziness. I used a box of Doan's
Kidney Pills, procured from Brown's
Drug Store, and found them to be just
what I needed. In a very short time I
was relieved of the aches and pains in
my bick and had no further trouble
from s., kidneys." Statement given
January 20th, 1911.
A LASTING CURE.
On January 7th, 1913, Mrs. Wells
said: "The cure Doan's Kidney Pills
gave me has been a lasting one.''
Price 50c at all dealers. Don't sinip

Felt Like She Was on
Fire Says Mrs
Burgess
Greenville Woman Tells
How Relatives Good
Fortune Aided Her
HOPES TO AID OTHFRS
Though She Had Become A
Physical Wreck, Her Health
Was Restored.
"It is the grandest mnedicina thre
ever was.
That's Tanlac. as Mrs. Mamie Burw
gess, of No. 18 Sace St.,. Greenville
described it.
"I was a physicai wreck when I bh
gan taking it, but three bottles mn:iie
me a well and strong woman, addt-d
Mrs. Burgess. The endorsement she
gave of Tanlac is strong and sincerec.
and she dave it because she said. "'I
hope my giving this statement will
help some other woman to find reli:i
in Tanlac like it gave me "
"Mrs Burgess said she took Tanlac
because it had helped a relative of hers
Mrs. Lillie Burgess, so mu'b. The
latter mentioned Mrs. Burgess also had
given an endorsemnent of Tanlac for
ncablication. Mrs. .Mamie Buregess' en
d~rsement follows:
"I sulfered with indigestion so badiy
that I just could not eat any thing at
any time hardly, and especially at sup
per, for I would almost choke to death
It seemed that everything I ate lodged
in my throat and almost chocked me
ad brought on smothering spells. I
had no desire to eat and just had to
force down wha t 1 did eat.
"After meals my stomach felt like it
had fire in it. I belched a great deal
and my stomach always wvas sour.I
was troubled a lot with heart barn, ton,
I had no strenght nor energy, and 11
could hardly do my housework. I
suffered a great deal with aizzv i.e~ i
aches, and my liver was out of order
"A relative of mine, Mrs. Lillie Buri
gess, had been helped so much by tak.
og Tanlac that I decided to take it,
too. Trhe Tanlac drove away al my
stomach trouble and gave me a great
appetite. I can now eat anything, I
want and it does cot hurt me. .dy
nerves were quieted, and the medi;cine
built up my system 5') much that I got
to where I slept floe every night. I!
regulated my liver and my system gen
erally and banished those headarce.
"Tanlac increased my strength a lot
and made me feel fine in every way.
I am a well woman. I think.
"I now recommend Tanlac because
it is the grandest medicine there ever
was. It sure is fioe. I was a physical
wreck when I began taking Tanlac,
but three bottles made me a well and
strong woman."

Physical Fitness Big Asset.
No woman nowadays can. afford
not to be welL.
ill health-even mere -"delicacy,*
with no positive manIfestations of
disease-exists too much. There is
the obvious, direct expense of doctors'
bills and medicines. But indrectly
you pay a much higher price for not
being well. If you are. a wage earner
your lost time and energy, due to a.
lack of physical strength, must also
be computed in lost dollars.
Poor health will interfere constant
ly with your social good times. It
will mar whatever beauty you may
possess sooner than any other cause.
If you are a wife and mother Illness
and weakness will interfere with your
duties and the comfort of those dear
to you. Whatever your stationu in
life you will find that the role of In
valid and weakling Is no longer fash
ionable or popular. For a while you
will have the sympathy of your
friends, but the best of them will be
bored with you sooner or later. They
can't help It. A worship of physical
fitness is in the air, and, Instead of
whining and pitying yourself, you
must bend all your energies .to the
task gf becoming well.-Exchange.
Fumigating Paper.
There are many formalas for mak
ng fumigating paper, one of the most
simple being: Benzoin, 1 av. ounce;
storax, one-half ounce; fumigatIng es
ence, 2 fi. ounce; ether, 1 fi. ounce;
.cetic acid, glacial, 20 drops; alcohol,
fi. ounce. Dissolve the benzoin and
torax in a mixture of the alcohol and
ther, filter, and add the fumigating
ssence and the acetic acid. Spread
he mixture upon filtering or bibulous
aper (blotting paper e.g.) and allow
t to dry. To prevent sticking, dust
he surface with talcum, and preserve
n. 'm.x paper. When used, the paper
a simply warmed, or held over a lamp.
Keeping Blooms Fresh.
Flowers begin to bleed as soon as
hey are cut, and the precious sap
unning out of them causes the cells
o collapse immediately. To prevent
his, the end of the stem must be
uickly closed, and this Is best done
y searing in a flame or by placing
irectly in hot water. For corsage
ouquets the searing process 1s best,
Ithough a little tedious, as each stem
must be so treated.
